Plugapps is now mirroring the kernels on a nightly basis, so kernels won't typically show up there until the following day after the announcement. They do have much more bandwidth than I do, so it's probably preferred to get them from Plugapps. The README files attempt to download from Plugapps first and then fallback to sheeva.with-linux.com.

ONDEMAND is only valid for cpu's that scale frequency. Which the sheevaplug can't do.

Since powertop was written by Intel for Intel, quite a few of it's recommendations are x86 specific. Someone could submit a patch to the powertop maintainers that would turn off invalid recommendations for the sheevaplug.

I thought giving it a try with a TeVii S660 DVB-S2 box [3], but though I think I got HTS TVheadend [1] properly compiled and installed on the plug, it can't find any "TV Adapters".

Is that kernel suitable for this exercise (compared to the settings in [5]) or should I use another one?

I guess it is, though my actual findings are based on Debian Squeeze (Linux Sheeva 2.6.32-5-kirkwood #1 Sat Dec 11 05:09:52 UTC 2010 armv5tel) to which I recently switched:

HTS Tvheadend (SVN-R5780) couldn't find the TeVii S660 DVB-S2 device neither, but I recalled, that as I still had a TerraTec Cingery DVB-T USB-adapter in my drawer (because -T coverage/signal strength is very poor where I live ).

However attaching it to the SheevaPlug I can see it, now :-) (thou no channels as to the above issue).

Is everything required for iSCSI target enabled again in the 2.6.36.x kernels?

No. There won't be until the iscsi target project releases a newer version than 1.4.20.2 that supports kernels > 2.6.35. Since 2.6.35.x is a long term support kernel it should be good to go for everything. I can't think of any critical features .36 adds for sheevaplug.

Interesting.... Before I saw your reply, I was messing around with scsi-target-utils and got my plug working as an iSCSI target... Please don't tell my plug

Perhaps what you meant to say was that the kernel was complete but the iscsi target project userland is not compatible with the 2.6.36?
